Yun State officially announced the national mourning.
Led by the Fan family, a semi-sage family, many well-established families in the literary world sent great Confucian scholars or academicians to Beijing to mourn.
Many countries, including Liao, Zhou, Liang, Tang, etc., all sent envoys to Yun to express their condolences.
In the literary world, scholars from all over the country published various articles detailing Emperor Jingwen's deeds and contributions during his lifetime to express their condolences.
In the streets and alleys, elders are telling young children the legendary story of Emperor Jingwen.
During the reign of Emperor Jingwen, he personally fought against the barbarians in the north and the Xiongnu in the south, and made many military exploits.
It has also rectified officialdom, strengthened agricultural production, improved people's living standards, supported businessmen to do business abroad, promoted economic development, etc.
The Guoxue Palace published an article and gave Emperor Jingwen a very high evaluation.

May 16.
The capital announced to the world that Emperor Jingwen's edict passed on the throne to the fourteenth prince Mu Hao, and he chose a day to ascend the throne.
This news shocked the whole country.
After Emperor Jingwen died of illness, scholars all over the country were worried about one thing, that is, Emperor Jingwen did not establish a heir during his lifetime, so after Emperor Jingwen was buried, who should inherit the throne?
Some people made many assumptions, some stayed up all night, and some were even more depressed.
But no one would have thought that Emperor Jingwen's edict would actually pass the throne to the young prince.
This is difficult for many people to accept, and there are even many doubts.
However, during the national mourning period, no one dared to talk too much about the ownership of the throne. That would be a great disrespect to the late emperor.
Therefore, only after the new king succeeds to the throne, scholars from all over the country will report to the court and express their opinions.
During the national mourning period, the capital city was exceptionally peaceful and there was no chaos, which actually surprised many people in secret.
The seventh day of June.
Emperor Jingwen was buried in the imperial mausoleum, the national mourning was over, and the mourning hall and Bai Ling were removed.
The eighth day of June.
The young prince ascended the throne to inherit the throne of emperor, and was named Emperor Hongxuan.
This year is still the 41st year of Jingwen, and the following year will be changed to the first year of Hongxuan.
In the Jinluan Palace.
Emperor Hongxuan, wearing an imperial crown and dragon robe, ascended the throne under the gaze of all his ministers.
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor."
The kings and officials met.
Emperor Hongxuan placed his right hand on the handle of the dragon chair, glanced at the ministers, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"All the ministers are equal."
Emperor Hongxuan's voice is still childish, but his tone is very serious, with a hint of supreme majesty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The kings and ministers are doing their jobs step by step, and they look the same as before.
Eunuch Feng said from the side: "I invite all the ministers to start the memorial."
"Your Majesty, the frontier is one hundred thousand miles away. The barbarian army has sent five hundred thousand troops north to attack our borders. Now three passes and five cities have been lost. Please make your decision, Your Majesty."
An official from the Ministry of War started, with a disapproving expression on his face, not expecting the young emperor to give correct instructions.
"What! The barbarians are marching north to attack my border!"
"These barbarians are really insidious. When the previous emperor was in power, they didn't dare to let out a single fart. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, they have jumped out to invade our borders. It is really unreasonable!"
“You are simply bullying my new master’s young age!”
Some officials scolded one after another, seemingly blaming Man Guo, but in fact they were scolding Emperor Hongxuan for being young. As soon as he ascended the throne, Man Guo treated Yun Guo as a soft persimmon.
Obviously, this was intended to target Emperor Hongxuan.
The wise king sneered, looking at Emperor Hongxuan with a slight contempt.
How can a child handle such a big event?
Before Emperor Hongxuan could speak, another official from the Ministry of War said: "Your Majesty, the frontier is 150,000 miles away. The Huns have sent an army of 400,000 troops south to attack the frontier. Two passes and four cities have been lost. Please make your decision."<
/p>
"What? The Huns are also coming?"
"This is unreasonable! How dare a mere Xiongnu tribe dare to offend our Chaotianwei? It's simply ridiculous!"
"Your Majesty is young, are we, the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom, also young?"
"Anyone who offends our Yun Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away!"
The officials were upright, but they still mocked the new monarch for his young age.
"Bang!"
Emperor Hongxuan slapped the table and said in a deep voice: "You all shut up!"
The wise king said: "Your Majesty, I think..."
"I told you to shut up, didn't you hear me?" Emperor Hongxuan looked directly at King Xian.
King Xian's expression changed. He was not angry. Instead, he felt that his younger brother was pretending to be mature.
"It's just that the barbarians went north and the Huns went south. What's all the fuss about?"
Emperor Hongxuan stood up and said: "Where is Yu Guang, the great scholar in the Ministry of War?"
"I have met the emperor in Guang."
A military general came out. He was in his forties, a great military strategist, brave and good at fighting. He once accompanied the late emperor on expeditions and made many military exploits. After returning to Beijing, he served in the Ministry of War.
"I...that...ahem..."
Emperor Hongxuan cleared his throat and said seriously: "I order you to be the marshal of the Northern Expedition and dispatch the 400,000 troops from the Tanzhou Military Camp to the north to support the border against the barbarians. We will set off immediately."
"I obey the decree!"
Yu Guang bowed and accepted the order.
The kings and ministers showed surprise. They were so calm and calm. Could it be that they were just pretending to appease the officials?
Emperor Hongxuan continued: "The Ministry of Finance will allocate 500,000 shi of grain and 8,000,000 taels of silver to supervise the construction of weapons, armor, chariots, etc. to supply the military supplies for the northward journey. If there is any slack or delay in military flights, regardless of official rank,
,Behead in public display!"
"Hiss..."
All the officials took a breath of air-conditioning. Is this still the young prince that everyone remembers? How did he become so resolute and resolute?
This method is very similar to Emperor Jingwen!
King Yan was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said: "I obey your order."
"Where is Wen Lie, the captain of the Ministry of War?"
"I have met the emperor Wenlie."
Another official from the Confucian realm came forward. This person also fought with the late emperor and served as a school captain after returning to Beijing.
"I order you to be the Grand Marshal of the Southern Conquest and dispatch 350,000 troops from Jiangzhou to fight against the Huns southward."
"I obey the order!" Wen Lie accepted the order.
"Then the Ministry of Household Affairs will allocate 400,000 shi of food and 6 million taels of silver to supervise the construction of weapons, armor, chariots, etc. to provide all military supplies for the southern expedition. Anyone who slacks off or delays the military aircraft will be beheaded in public, regardless of official rank!" "Yes."
King Yan took command again.
"Order the King of Heroes to supervise the battle and be responsible for deploying strategic command, dispatching troops, transporting grain, grass and backup. Anyone who neglects will be killed!"
"I must supervise the battle between the two armies in real time and live up to the great trust of our emperor." King Xia said loudly.
At this moment, the officials looked at Emperor Hongxuan with a look of fear.
It’s really the new emperor’s three main things to do when he takes office. He might just kill this or that, it’s really awesome!
"Impossible! How could a twelve-year-old child suddenly know so much about government affairs?"
The wise king was very puzzled.
"Could it be..."
The wise king thought carefully and suspected that the young prince often took care of Emperor Jingwen. When Emperor Jingwen reviewed the memorials, he might personally guide the government and teach some emperor's thoughts.
If not, how could Emperor Jingwen safely pass the throne to his youngest brother among the princes?
Thinking of this, King Xian's expression became a little ugly.
"Ministers."
Emperor Hongxuan glanced at everyone present, exuding a unique aura that intimidated all civil and military officials.
"Nowadays, the barbarians are marching north and the Xiongnu are marching south. At this time of crisis, everyone should put aside their personal grudges and work together in the same boat. As long as the monarch and his ministers are united, there will be no enemy that cannot be defeated. I hope that all of you, dear friends, can do your best to assist me.
If anyone dares to hide his selfish motives and take this opportunity to harm the country and the people, I will not forgive him lightly!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
The kings and ministers all spoke in unison, somewhat approving of Emperor Hongxuan.
This seemingly young Xinjun is not as naive as imagined.
However, this was a big blow to the officials of the Xian Wang Party.
…………
The tenth day of June.
Suzhou, Wenyuan.
"The new emperor ascended the throne, the barbarians went north, and the Huns went south. Haha... If the previous emperor passed on to the Eight Wise Kings, how dare the barbarians and the Huns make such a noise?"
"Hmph! Letting a twelve-year-old prince inherit the throne will definitely put the Yun Kingdom into danger. I protest!"
"Well said! Who in the world is more suitable to be the king of a country than a wise king?"
"That's it! That's it!"
In the square, many scholars were enjoying the shade under the trees, but they said very unpleasant things about Emperor Hongxuan.
Scholars headed by Ji Changan spread the information that the Eight Wise Kings were more suitable to be kings, and many children of aristocratic families responded.
Some scholars are too lazy to pay attention and let Ji Changan and others talk nonsense.
Anyway, Emperor Hongxuan is in power now, so what’s the use of the scholars who support the Xian Wang Party no matter how much they say?
Du Ning passed by this place and heard the conversation between Ji Changan and others, and shook his head helplessly.
"Hey! Mr. Du, are you going to school?"
When Ji Changan saw Du Ning coming, he quickly stopped Du Ning and said with a smile: "We are discussing things about the new emperor. I wonder what Mr. Du thinks of the new emperor? We want to ask you for advice. If it is the biography of the previous emperor,
As the Eight Wise Kings, do you think the barbarians and the Xiongnu will invade the frontiers?"
The implication is that if the Eight Wise Kings succeed to the throne, the barbarians and Huns will not dare to invade.
Because Ji Changan and others believed that the barbarians and Xiongnu sent troops to Yun State precisely because they learned that the new emperor of Yun State was a child.
Therefore, the reason why the barbarians went north and the Xiongnu went south was because the new emperor of Yun State was young and they felt that Yun State was easy to bully.
"Mr. Ji, I don't want to answer such boring questions like yours. I'm in a hurry to go to class." Du Ning said.
"This is a national event, how can we call it boring?"
Ji Changan stopped Du Ning and said in a rogue manner: "Master Du, please make it clear."
"Hey..."
Du Ning sighed and said slowly: "I think if a wise king were in power, the whole country would be in chaos."
"Joke! What a big joke!"
Ji Changan and others laughed loudly, with sarcasm on their faces.
Du Ning continued: "If a wise king ascends the throne, who will be convinced by King Ji, King Chong, King Yan, and King Hexia? I'm afraid that before the barbarians and Xiongnu invade the border, our own court will be destroyed by the kings and ministers.
It has become a mess. During the national mourning period, the barbarians and the Huns have already been arranging their troops. No matter who ascends the throne, it will be the same. However, if the young prince ascends the throne, the kings will take the initiative to seek stability and not be in chaos."
